NXNW Festival is looking for recordings of poets to showcase alongside the upcoming exhibition 'Illuminate' at The Turnpike, Leigh, on Saturday 6th March 2010. The themes of the exhibition are illumination, innovation and brightness, enlightening the dark with ideas.

Please send recordings of your work in mp3 format to woodenhorse@tiscali.co.uk along with a transcript of poem as well as a brief bio.

'Illuminate' is a one off evening exhibition bringing together specifically created collaborations by the NXNW team. Drawing together their key mediums the committee will interpret the festival's themes of innovation and brightness in a show that will enlighten the dark night with ideas, refreshing visuals, sounds and interactive works.

Come, drink wine and be merry while you play with an interactive VJ table, wow at 3 dimensional projections and get taken to a mystical land in the dream machine amongst other sights and sounds.... Warning, it is not advisable to attend if you suffer from epilepsy.
